They all came to Taos: Georgia O'Keefe, D. H. Lawrence, Carl Van Vechten, and other expatriates of New York City. Fleeing urban ugliness, they moved west between 1917 and 1929 to join the community that art patron Mabel Dodge created in her Taos salon and to draw inspiration from New Mexico's mountain desert and "primitive" peoples. As they settled, their quest for the primitive forged a link between "authentic" places and those who called them home. In this first book to consider Dodge and her visitors from a New Mexican perspective, Flannery Burke shows how these cultural mavens drew on modernist concepts of primitivism to construct their personal visions and cultural agendas. In each chapter she presents a place as it took shape for a different individual within Dodge's orbit. From this kaleidoscope of places emerges a vision of what place meant to modernist artists-as well as a narrative of what happened in the real place of New Mexico when visitors decided it was where they belonged. Expanding the picture of early American modernism beyond New York's dominance, she shows that these newcomers believed Taos was the place they had set out to find-and that when Taos failed to meet their expectations, they changed Taos. Throughout, Burke examines the ways notions of primitivism unfolded as Dodge's salon attracted artists of varying ethnicities and the ways that patronage was perceived-by African American writers seeking publication, Anglos seeking "authentic" material, Native American artists seeking patronage, or Nuevomexicanos simply seeking respect. She considers the notion of "competitive primitivism," especially regarding Carl Van Vechten, and offers nuanced analyses of divisions within northern New Mexico's arts communities over land issues and of the ways in which Pueblo Indians spoke on their own behalf. Burke's book offers a portrait of a place as it took shape both aesthetically in the imaginations of Dodge's visitors and materially in the lives of everyday New Mexicans. It clearly shows that no people or places stand outside the modern world-and that when we pretend otherwise, those people and places inevitably suffer.

This thesis fills the gap in our knowledge of the Taos Society of Artists, whose members forged exciting new directions that resulted in an authentic American art. The site of the first New Mexico art colony was in Taos. There, artists found a refuge where they could experiment and develop personal styles. The Taos Society of Artists was originally founded by Joseph Henry Sharp, Bert Geer Phillips, and Ernest L. Blumenschein. Within a few years Eanger Irving Couse, Oscar E. Berninghaus, William Herbert Dunton, Victor Higgins, and Walter Ufer joined the group. Histories of American art have largely neglected the important historical moment when American artists in the West moved away from classical artistic traditions into newer modern modes of painting. The lives and artworks of the Taos group form an essential chapter in the formation of American modernism. This thesis serves to begin the process of bridging the gap in American art history between classical and modern styles, from the art of masters such as Fredric Remington and Charles Russell to Georgia O'Keeffe and Maynard Dixon. While the subject of early Taos paintings may be viewed as simply western or Indian, their styles range from idealistic to realistic. From the inception of the Taos Society of Artists, influential patrons who played a large role in America's southwestern expansion valued their paintings and frequently paid large sums of money for them. In spite of their prominence, however, there is little or no information about the group in widely used art history textbooks. Art history classes taught at the college level typically do not include works by Taos artists or mention their important role in American art history. This thesis aims to fill the lack of scholarly literature and to demonstrate the importance of the Taos Society of Artists in American art history.

Download Patronizing the Arts Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
What is the role of the arts in American culture? Is art an essential element? If so, how should we support it? Today, as in the past, artists need the funding, approval, and friendship of patrons whether they are individuals, corporations, governments, or nonprofit foundations. But as Patronizing the Arts shows, these relationships can be problematic, leaving artists "patronized"--both supported with funds and personal interest, while being condescended to for vocations misperceived as play rather than serious work. In this provocative book, Marjorie Garber looks at the history of patronage, explains how patronage has elevated and damaged the arts in modern culture, and argues for the university as a serious patron of the arts. With clarity and wit, Garber supports rethinking prejudices that oppose art's role in higher education, rejects assumptions of inequality between the sciences and humanities, and points to similarities between the making of fine art and the making of good science. She examines issues of artistic and monetary value, and transactions between high and popular culture. She even asks how college sports could provide a new way of thinking about arts funding. Using vivid anecdotes and telling details, Garber calls passionately for an increased attention to the arts, not just through government and private support, but as a core aspect of higher education. Compulsively readable, Patronizing the Arts challenges all who value the survival of artistic creation both in the present and future.
